Polar Bears, Roses, and Mixed Media Collages

Polar bear and roses mixed media collage by illustrator Chris Olson

One of the best parts of my job as an illustrator and designer is I get to meet some very cool people—and animals. Polar bears are my favorite guys at the zoo. My camera and I also get to be up close and personal with lots of amazing flowers—and a few bumblebees.
